It appears that the file may actually be a classic Mac application because the Sourceforge link goes to a .sit.hqx file 8-0 You may be able to extract it with ffmpeg http://www.savvyadmin.com/extract-ac3-dolby-digital-with-ffmpeg/ pre-compiled mac versions are available here http://www.ffmpegmac.net and there are a couple gui frontends: http://www.iffmpeg.com (looks like it may be commercial, or at least shareware) http://datura.sourceforge.net and https://www.ffmpegx.com both open source, and possibly this which appears to be some sort of AV super toolkit http://www.selur.de I do know I've used ffmpegx in the past to convert audio and video files from one to another.

FYI the recording specifies 5.1 Dolby Digital AC-3 and DTS Surround Sound, and that it plays on all DVD-Audio and DVD-Video players. Am I out of luck? Thanks!

Both are pretty much dead audio formats (have been for about 10 years now). DVD-A doesn't have video. It is audio only. It may be recorded at 24 bits per sample at a bit rate as high as 192 khz, though 96 is more common. DVD-A recordings may be in 5.1 surround. The only way to hear the full quality of this recording is to play with a DVD-A player. You can play these discs in a regular DVD player if they have a separate track that plays in the standard DTS 5.1 format that your movies have.

There’s video material included, which I guess accounts for that. My question is this: I want to export the audio so that I can store it in iTunes, but I have no idea how to do so. (DVD Player is the app that launches automatically when I insert the disc.) Is there a reasonably simple way to do so? As always, my thanks in advance! *************** Bill Spencer in Maryland Mac Mini 2.6 GHz i5/10.11.6 -- You received this message because you are a member of the iMac Group, a group for those using Apple iMacs and eMacs.
